Wow. This is last day of November! How the heck did that happen. Well 2016 has been a tough year for a lot of people for a lot of different reasons. November has definitely had its challenges for me personally. But, just for today, things are looking up. I feel completely unprepared for the onslaught of December. Look for my 2nd Annual "Earie Awards" posts to begin soon.
Well after several days off, it's time to jump back into the shuffle. It is Wednesday and once again I am shuffling from all of the songs on my phone. Here is the final shuffle of November 2016.

Hey ho! It is the last day of my work week. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving or if you are outside the US I hope you have a great Thursday.
Since it is Thanksgiving time, I want to take second to say that I am extremely thankful for you - my constant reader, and I am thankful for all of the blessings that my obsession with all things music-related have brought into my life. I can truly say that the course of my life has been altered because I decided to start writing Ear to the Ground in May 2011. It is just about inconceivable for me to try to imagine my life without the people I have met directly or indirectly because of E2TG. So Thank You all!
Let's take this week out in style and get wild on a Wednesday! Shuffling from the entire list of music on my phone.

Well it is Tuesday or since it is Thanksgiving week, I like to think of it as Thursday.
Recorded a future Double Shot show last night that will air the first Saturday of December. It is going to be a good one. This Saturday, we will be live playing songs dedicated to holiday travelers. Called "Highway and Bi-Way (or To Grandmother's House We Go).
Staying busy and trying to think about this years' Earie Awards without getting overwhelmed - it has been an amazing year for music (don't let anyone tell you different).
Shuffling today from the "New Music" playlist for Trending Tuesday. Let's go...

Well, it is Thanksgiving week in the US. And over the weekend, the temperatures finally dropped down to seasonally appropriate levels... aka it was frigid this morning.
I took my daughter to the Family Wash Saturday to see BARK and Stone Cupid. She had a blast and loved both bands, as do I. She got tired half way through Stone Cupid's set but we had a great night.
By the way, I really try not to pay too much attention to Page views and the like, however, I have noticed that October 2016 was our biggest month ever in that regard, and as of November 21, 2016, November has topped October. I am not completely sure if I believe that that many more people are reading this, but if you are welcome.
On Monday, we shuffle tunes connected to Nashville (at least by my estimation/or sometime erroneous assumptions - as you will see). Let's jump to it!

Featured Friday Morning Shuffle - Wild Living Mix

Greetings from the end of the working week... Last night, a really great night of music at The Basement East. Harrison Whitford, who I have been impressed with since the first time I saw him - opened. His music has really matured (I think that is the word I am looking for) since I first saw him nearly a year and a half ago. Not that it was immature. Just that he has grown as an artist since then.
Next up, reigning (or about a month more) E2TG Artist of the Year, Jon Latham absolutely destroyed with a full band set that included Andrew Leahey and Sean Quinn on guitar and Raun Schultz on drums. Moving through songs from his debut, Real Bad News and newer songs including songs from his forthcoming album, Lifers. As he always does, Latham commanded the stage.
And what can I say about Bobby Bare Jr.. Joined by Harrison Whitford on guitar - Bare Jr ripped through an incredible set that included some old favorites plus a new song he wrote for the forthcoming Guided By Voices album, an older GBV song, and he closed with a rip-roaring version of "Cover of the Rolling Stone".
It is Friday and we have a shuffle from our "New Music" playlist. Let's jump in...

Throwback Thursday Morning Shuffle - Stagger Lee Mix

And just like that, it is Thursday. Last night, an excellent early show at The 5 Spot. With local band, Harpooner. Why oh why am I just "discovering" this band now? They were awesome. Followed by the always amazing Allen Thompson Band with lots of special guests. A really fine early evening of music. Later, I was at WXNA for the Pledge Drive - hanging out with Kon for Freaking Out the Squares. Austin from Sound, Mind, and Proxy was hanging out, too. Remember, if you love what WXNA has done for Nashville over the past six months, now is a good time to show your appreciation by making a one-time or recurring donation to keep us going. 615-933-9962 or on-line at WXNAFM.ORG.
Tonight, E2TG Artist of the Year 2015, Jon Latham will be opening up for Bobby Bare Jr.. Harrison Whitford is also on the bill. This is at The Basement East. Get there!
Okay, it is Thursday when we normally throw it back. I still haven't gotten around to creating a throwback playlist, so today, I am shuffling songs from the built-in Recently Added playlist. Throwing back to the days before I had playlists at E2TG. I have to keep it short and to the point today.

Well, it is mid-week. After helping out with the WXNA Pledge Drive (jump on that if you haven't), I headed out to $2 Tuesday. Derek Hoke was out of town, so DJ Tim Hibbs was hosting. Highlights: Jennifer Nicely, Patrick Kinsley and a Fistful of Dollars, The Stoop Kids, plus special surprise guests - Caitlin Rose and Daniel Romano.
Tonight, Allen Thompson Band are playing the early show at The 5 Spot, and I have a late night shift at WXNA.
Tomorrow Night: Jon Latham and Harrison Whitford open for Bobby Bare, Jr.
On Wednesday, we go wild... I think this shuffle meets that criteria.
